New trailer for Jake LaMotta biopic The Bronx Bull

With a little over three weeks to go until its US release, a new trailer has arrived online for the upcoming biographical drama The Bronx Bull; originally pitched as an unofficial sequel to Martin Scorsese’s Raging Bull (which naturally led a legal dispute between the producers and MGM), the film stars William Forsythe and Mojean Aria as legendary World Middleweight Champion Jake LaMotta alongside Joe Mantegna, Paul Sorvino, Natasha Henstridge, Penelope Ann Miller, Ray Wise, Tom Sizemore, Cloris Leachman and Bruce Davison; take a look below after the official synopsis…

Based on the tumultuous real-life experiences of legendary boxing champion Jake LaMotta, “LaMotta: The Bronx Bull” is a dramatic and stylized biopic with an outstanding ensemble cast. Chronicling LaMotta’s violent childhood, to his rise as a world-class boxer, through his life after leaving the ring, “LaMotta: The Bronx Bull” offers an unflinchingly honest look into the heart of a champion.
